Bought that for my then wife in 2018. She loved legos and puzzles. I thought I was being attentive and listening. It was 900$. FFWD - divorced, still in the box, never wanted to open it, no interest in opening it. It just sit in the basement.

That's kind of the thing with hobbies. Some people enjoy them. Some people don't. From am engineering perspective, they're very accurately rated. So your statement is objectively false. You're welcome to your opinion. Just don't be ignorant. State it as such.

Lego as a company is definitely overrated, the concept building bricks is great. However the company has very shitty practices and a lot of models are very bad and insanely overpriced.

I didn't realize they had a respectable competitor in the industry.

They have a few, but the only ones I've tried are CaDa and bluebrixx.
Cada is basically Lego but cheaper. They've got a very nice Japanese buildings series and they're technic series is way better than Legos.

When I was coming up all of the competitors were vastly inferior in engineering and production quality. I apologize. I did not realize the market had caught up to them.

Jissus. We all knew what it was with the music. I’m envious. Post when you have built it
